A suspected gun factory which used a state-of-the-art 3D printer was uncovered by police yesterday.
Stunned officers believe a gang were using the machine to make deadly firearms.
They recovered a freshly-made plastic magazine and trigger during a raid in Bagley, Manchester, which could be used to create a handgun.

One senior officer said organised crime gangs are acquiring technology on the high street to make guns ‘in the privacy of their own home.’
Det Insp Chris Mossop, of Greater Manchester Police, told Sky News: ‘These could be the next generation of firearms.’

The discovery is believed to be the first of its kind in Britain and confirms the worst fears of security chiefs.
They warned just a few weeks ago that criminals were attempting to use 3D printing technology to manufacture guns.
Police fear terrorists and criminals could use the machines and plans that are readily available to download online to circumvent gun controls.

I honestly didn't know that they'd raid 3D gun factories. But I'm glad they're doing this because I remember about that video of how a person made a file for it and released it so anyone could make it and basically from there I thought things were going to go bad.

How can 3D printers make effective firearms?
Guns are made of metals for a reason and that's so that the force of pulling the trigger doesn't break the casing.

There has been a blueprint of some sort published on the internet and people are able to make guns from 3D printers now that actually work.

I sell these on the blackmarket. Good money. Are you prepared for the zombie apocalypse? I am now.

I thought more of the fact people are now going to get their hands on a gun more easily = more people possibly being killed in this world.

Wow... I would have never thought that's possible.
Some people are fucking crazy.

This has happened in the US a few times, I wasn't aware that it had spread.
Although I do want one.

Jesus. Is this becoming a thing? This is awfully dangerous.
